Here are the highlights from BurnaBoy's BBMusicCon panel, including his dream venue — one which would certainly make waves if it ever happened.
in 2019, Burna was scheduled to perform at Coachella — but he couldn’t find his name on the flyer due to its small print. At the time, he said, he had an entire other album ready to release, but he scrapped it in order to focus on the idea of African Giant in response to the perceived slight.
He also releases his music in Africa on his Spaceship Connection label, and through Atlantic in other territories. “I’ve always been infatuated with spaceships and aliens,” he said about the name of his label. “I’ve always had questions and was always asking sh– … I felt so far ahead of my time. That’s how that came about.”— “It means I’m great,” he said about the honor — an album that was executive produced by, who he said he connected with “on Zoom.
That album also included the cut “Naughty by Nature,” which featured the classic hip-hop group that he had loved as a child. “That’s the whole point of why I wanted them on the song. It just had to be done,” he said. “I got their verses on my birthday, and it came with a video of them saying happy birthday and showing love.”cover story, Burna talked about wanting to perform in nontraditional spaces, like a train station.
Of course, that would seem like a stretch. But then, Burna Boy isn’t an artist who has seen an obstacle as unattainable. And he echoed that in his final words on the panel. “My legacy will be the BB and the AB,” he said, referencing what he told Mamo in the cover story. “‘Before Burna’ and ‘After Burna.'”
